This grant funds high school mathematics educators to develop and implement lessons or materials that engage students in mathematical modeling and foster connections between mathematics and other subject areas. Projects may include e-booklets, videos, or physical models designed to help students apply mathematical modeling to real-world problems and interdisciplinary contexts. Proposals should detail the development, implementation, and evaluation plan, as well as anticipated impacts on student learning and how mathematics will be connected to broader contexts.
